Primary Cardiac Intimal Sarcoma: Multi-Layered Strategy and Core Role of MDM2 Amplification/Co-Amplification and MDM2 Immunostaining. (PubMed, Diagnostics (Basel))
To summarize, MDM2 amplification and co-amplification, for example, with MDM4, CDK4, HMGA3, CCND3, PDGFRA, TERT, KIT, CCND3, and HDAC9, might improve the diagnosis of PCIS in addition to MDM2 immunostaining since 10-20% of these tumours are MDM2-negative. Further studies are necessary to highlight MDM2 applicability as a prognostic factor and as an element to be taken into account amid multi-layered management in an otherwise very aggressive malignancy.

Tobacco Smoke Condensate Induces Morphologic Changes in Human Papillomavirus-Positive Cervical Epithelial Cells Consistent with Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) with Activation of Receptor Tyrosine Kinases and Regulation of TGFB. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci)
Our study demonstrated that CSC induces EMT in ectocervical cells with the upregulation of EMT-related genes, expression of protein biomarkers, and activation of RTKs that regulate TGFB expression, and other EMT-related genes. Understanding the molecular pathways and environmental factors that initiate EMT in ectocervical cells will help delineate molecular targets for intervention and define the role of EMT in the initiation and progression of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and CC.

Inducible CXCL12/CXCR4-dependent extramedullary hematopoietic niches in the adrenal gland. (PubMed, Blood)
Mirroring our findings in mice, we found reticular CXCL12+ cells co-expressing master niche-regulator FOXC1 in primary samples from human adrenal myelolipomas, a benign tumor composed of adipose and hematopoietic tissue. Our findings reignite long-standing questions regarding hormonal regulation of hematopoiesis and provide a novel model to facilitate the study of adult-specific inducible hematopoietic niches which may pave the way to therapeutic applications.

The Effect of Therapy Regimen on Antitumor Efficacy of the Nanosomal Doxorubicin against Rat Glioblastoma 101.8. (PubMed, Bull Exp Biol Med)
Early start of treatment prolonged the survival time and increased tumor growth inhibition by 141.4 and 95.7%, respectively, in comparison with the untreated group; these differences were not observed in the group with late start of therapy. The results indicate that the time of initiation of therapy is a critical parameter affecting the antitumor efficacy of DOX-PLGA.

Myxoid Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Sarcoma: Clinicopathologic Analysis of 25 Cases of a Distinctive Sarcoma With Deceptively Bland Morphology and Aggressive Clinical Behavior. (PubMed, Am J Surg Pathol)
The patient whose tumor harbored SEC31A::PDGFRA was treated after multiple relapses with imatinib and sunitinib therapy, with progression-free periods of 5 and 2 years, respectively. Despite its bland appearance, myxoid inflammatory myofibroblastic sarcoma harbors a significant risk for disseminated disease, particularly when it occurs in the peritoneum. Targeted therapy could be considered for patients with disseminated disease.

Brefeldin A and M-COPA block the export of RTKs from the endoplasmic reticulum via simultaneous inactivation of ARF1, ARF4, and ARF5. (PubMed, J Biol Chem)
Inhibitors of protein export from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), such as brefeldin A (BFA) and 2-methylcoprophilinamide (M-COPA), can suppress the activation of mutant RTKs in cancer cells, suggesting that RTK mutants cannot initiate signaling in the ER...Consistent with these results, in vitro pulldown assays showed that BFA/M-COPA blocked the function of ARF1, ARF4, and ARF5. Taken together, these results suggest that BFA/M-COPA targets at least ARF1, ARF4, and ARF5; in other words, RTKs require the simultaneous activation of ARF1, ARF4, and ARF5 for their ER export.

Fusion of Platelet Derived Growth Factor Receptor Alpha (PDGFRA) With Ubiquitin Specific Peptidase 8 (USP8) in a Calcified Chondroid Mesenchymal Neoplasm Harboring t(4;15)(q12;q21) as a Sole Aberration. (PubMed, Cancer Genomics Proteomics)
We report, for the first time, a calcified chondroid mesenchymal neoplasm carrying a balanced t(4;15)(q12;q21) chromosomal translocation, resulting in the generation of both PDGFRA::USP8 and USP8::PDGFRA chimeras. The PDGFRA::USP8 protein is located on the cell membrane and functions as a chimeric ubiquitinyl hydrolase, activated by PDGFs. Conversely, USP8::PDGFRA is a nuclear protein regulating metabolic processes.

Blockade of Discoidin Domain Receptor Signaling with Sitravatinib Reveals DDR2 as a Mediator of Neuroblastoma Pathogenesis and Metastasis. (PubMed, Mol Cancer Ther)
Analysis of single cell sequencing data demonstrated that DDR2 is restricted to mesenchymal-type tumor subpopulations and is enriched in Schwann Cell Precursor (SCP) subpopulations found in high-risk disease. These data define an unsuspected role for sitravatinib as a therapeutic agent in neuroblastoma and reveal a novel function for DDR2 as a driver of tumor growth and metastasis.

Cancer-associated fibroblast activation predicts progression, metastasis, and prognosis of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. (PubMed, Int J Cancer)
Multimarker combination defined CAF subset, PDGFRα-/PDGFRβ+/FAP+, was associated with invasion and metastasis, and independently predicted poor disease-specific survival. These results identify high PDGFRβ expression alone and multimarker combination PDGFRα-/PDGFRβ+/FAP+ by CAFs as potential biomarkers for risk of metastasis and poor prognosis.

Mesenchymal-specific Alms1 knockout in mice recapitulates metabolic features of Alström Syndrome. (PubMed, Mol Metab)
Mesenchymal deletion of Alms1 recapitulates metabolic features of AS, including fatty liver. This confirms a key role for Alms1 in the adipose lineage, where its loss is sufficient to cause systemic metabolic effects and damage to remote organs. Hyperphagia in females may depend on Alms1 deficiency in oligodendrocyte precursor cells rather than neurones. AS should be regarded as a forme fruste of lipodystrophy.

Single-cell approaches define two groups of mammalian oligodendrocyte precursor cells and their evolution over developmental time. (PubMed, Stem Cell Reports)
When adult oligodendrogenesis is enhanced during experimentally induced remyelination, adult OPCs do not reacquire a developmental open chromatin state, and the oligodendrogenesis trajectory is distinct from that seen neonatally. These data suggest that there are two OPC groups subserving distinct postnatal functions and that neonatal and adult OPC-mediated oligodendrogenesis are fundamentally different.

PDGFRA K385 mutants in myxoid glioneuronal tumors promote receptor dimerization and oncogenic signaling. (PubMed, Sci Rep)
Furthermore, we evaluated the sensitivity of these mutants to three FDA-approved tyrosine kinase inhibitors: imatinib, dasatinib, and avapritinib, which effectively suppressed the constitutive activity of the mutant receptors. Interestingly, K385M was reported in a few cases of brain tumors but not in MGNT. Our results provide valuable insights into the molecular mechanism underlying the activation of PDGFRα by the K385I/L mutations, highlighting their potential as actionable targets in the treatment of myxoid glioneuronal tumors.

Advancing Precision Oncology in Hereditary Paraganglioma-Pheochromocytoma Syndromes: Integrated Interpretation and Data Sharing of the Germline and Tumor Genomes. (PubMed, Cancers (Basel))
After processing, 8600 variants were submitted programmatically from the INT2GRATE|HPPGL platform to ClinVar via a custom-made INT2GRATE|HPPGL variant submission schema and an application programming interface (API). This novel integrated variant assessment and data sharing in hereditary cancers aims to improve the clinical assessment of genomic variants and advance precision oncology.

Aggressive systemic mastocytosis with the co-occurrence of PRKG2::PDGFRB, KAT6A::NCOA2, and RXRA::NOTCH1 fusion transcripts and a heterozygous RUNX1 frameshift mutation. (PubMed, Cancer Genet)
The patient rapidly evolved towards SM-AHN, characterized by the persistence of the PRKG2::PDGFRB chimera, due to the presence of an extra copy of the der(5)t(4;5)(q24;q34) chromosome and an increase in the RUNX1 mutation allelic frequency. The results indicated that the transcriptional landscape and the mutational profile of SM deserve attention to predict the evolution and prognosis of this complex disease, whose classification criteria are still a matter of debate.

A landscape of patient-derived cancer-associated fibroblast signals in endometrial cancers. (PubMed, Am J Cancer Res)
We demonstrate that endometrial CAFs can be cultured in an enzymatic-digestion-independent manner, and their signaling landscape can be mapped toward understanding CAF-TME dialogue. Our data will help unearth the functional relevance of endometrial CAFs in the context of clinical outcomes and designing CAF-inclusive therapy in the future.

Utility of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) for prognosis of patients with recurrent high grade glioma (AACR 2024)
Specifically, the presence of enhancing disease and contact of the tumor with the ventricular space were positively associated with detection of CSF ctDNA. Additionally, CSF ctDNA was associated with positive cytology in 21/21 cases (100%).With our improved bioinformatics pipeline we hypothesize ctDNA from CSF may be used as a prognostic biomarker for survival, but confirmation requires further validation in a prospective study.

Monitoring glioma treatment response through longitudinal analysis of cell-free DNA in cerebrospinal fluid: Insights from a comprehensive study using next-generation sequencing (AACR 2024)
Subsequently, CSF cfDNA decreased during chemoradiation and adjuvant treatment and increased at recurrence, even in patients co-enrolled in immunotherapy trials for IL-7 agonists and pembrolizumab... Analysis of cfDNA throughout a patient's disease course, encompassing resection and treatment with standard-of-care and experimental therapies, may aid in disease monitoring and treatment response. Further evaluation in a larger patient cohort is needed to determine the sensitivity of changes in mutations, CNB, and cfDNA quantity for glioma disease burden.
